Jonnie's Goodguys - #DoGoodStuff
Who is Jonnie?
Jonathan Miller is the Original Goodguy.
For most of us, he came into our world in 1990-93, when he marched with Star of Indiana Drum & Bugle Corps. Drum Corps has a way of turning friends into family and Jon is family to many.
In November 2005, Jon collapsed at work and was unresponsive. Medics were called and a co-worker tried to resuscitate him. Not knowing what was really wrong, they rushed him to the ER. Doctors tried everything but could not bring him back. An autopsy later revealed a dissected Aorta, that lead to cardiac tamponade as cause of death. Even if Jon had been in the ER on monitors when he dissected, he still would have only had a 50/50 chance of survival. He was 33, happily married, and absolutely giddy over his 6 month old daughter.
Jonnie is our motivation, drive, and inspiration.
